1. The sermon reminded us that “sometimes you don’t have resilience of your own—you need someone else’s.” When in your life have you experienced strength and encouragement from others when you couldn’t find it yourself?

3. A couple in the story had “been where we were many years ago” and were able to encourage from their experience. Why do you think it’s important for marriages to connect with mentors or couples who’ve walked a similar path?

4. Ecclesiastes says, “a cord of three strands is not quickly broken.” How have you seen this truth play out in your own marriage, friendships, or family relationships?

5. The sermon reminded us that marriage is not just founded on God but must be lived in Him. What does it look like practically to live your marriage “in Christ” day by day?

6. There are “a lot of books, podcasts, counselors, and resources for marriage.” How do we wisely discern which resources align with biblical truth and genuinely strengthen our homes?

7. The message closed by acknowledging some people “gave everything to save your marriage.” How can the church family walk alongside those in the midst of struggle—whether their marriage is thriving, healing, or hurting?
